February 5 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm EST
Lucy Spelman and Susan Tacent will join the Rogers Free Library and Ink Fish Books for a writing workshop and discussion on their new book Creature Needs: Writers Respond to the Science of Animal Conservation, on Wednesday, February 5, at 6:00 p.m. EST.
This event is free and open to the public.
Creature Needs is a polyvocal call to arms about animal extinction and habitat loss that harnesses the power of literature and scientific research to spur action and change. A collection of new literary works by prominent writers paired with excerpts from recent scientific articles that inspired and informed them, this innovative anthology engages the collaborative spirit and energy that is necessary to address the impact of humans on all other creatures on our planet.
“A thought-provoking and emotionally resonant read that stands out for its lyrical prowess and formal innovation, making it a significant contribution to contemporary literature as well as a key volume bridging the gap between the worlds of science and art.”—Library Journal
